The local accents in Arabic countries often get attention and care of both Arab and western researchers in the field of linguistics. Whenever these studies are advanced, some significant issues are clarified. We are certain that the contemporary accents possess some traditional factors used in accents before the advent of Islam. Although new accents due to their advancements in different environment have caused distances and a bit alienation and even adopted some of the local features, they could preserve many of the characteristics of the traditional Arabic language. Khuzestani Arabic accent is one which is close to the eloquent Arabic and it keeps intact some grammatical, syntactic, phonetic characteristics of the traditional Arabic. But, unfortunately, this accent was not of great attention to new researchers except for some weak and random studies. In this field study in Khuzestan, we focused on the local accent of Arabs in this province. Also, we studied phonetics and syntax, and focused on the etymology of these factors in traditional Arabic accents and then, highlighted it through examples and similarities from Qur’an. The paper concludes that many of the elements are close to the Qur’anic elements and all these findings are reasons to this accent's originality.

Keywords: Khuzestan, Arabic Accent, Phonetical Elements, the Holy Qur’an
